Verdict

BEAUTY BOLT (5) was very good in his HK debut, sticking on strongly to finish 1.5L off the winner at this track and trip. He'll be better for that effort and now Purton hops in the saddle with the gelding no doubt eyeing off the 4YO Series next year. Looks to have some class about him and can go one better this way. RIDING TOGETHER (10) was far too good from the front here last time out when scoring by 1.3L in comfortable fashion. He's working his way through the grades nicely and Teetan hops in the saddle now as he drops 11lbs with the rise in grade. Can continue his current run of form. SKY VINO (8) got the job done in good style at Happy Valley last start and comes back to Sha Tin for the first time since March. He is back to 7f today, but he's on the fresh side and Wong's claim comes in handy. Can put his best foot forward again. SOUTH STAR (4) comes through a good race last start and has some class. Can be in the finish again.
